Glendale Galleria is:
1) Conveniently located
2) Full of great stores and other mall fare (with the notable exception of J. Crew) including a movie theater, a Circuit City, Nordstrom, Macy's, Swatch and a great men's shoe store on the 2nd floor (can't remember the name but you'll know it when you see it)
3) Generally crowded (but don't let that scare you away)
4) a seemingly difficult place to find parking but if you're willing to pass all of the numbskulls who insist on parking on level 2 you will be rewarded with a wealth of parking options
Enjoy.
